Good news for me, my leather elbow patches came in the mail so the costume designer at my job should have ample time to get them sewn on my tweed.
Good thing too - I would hate to geek it out with you folks wearing an 11th coat without elbow patches.
There's nothing wrong with wearing leather in the rain, so long as you've applied the right stuff to it.
Where'd you end up getting the patches from? I've got two jackets that need 'em and haven't seen any in stores that I've been happy with.
And Punchbuggyblues, I still say you need to ditch your plans and join us (Kidding, I know you can't but we'll have to try another meet up for sure).
Still trying to figure out if I'm going on Saturday. My husband is now being sent on a work trip so I'm sorting out if I'm carpooling with Moonfall's group or just driving on my own.
I don't have a Doctor Who costume. Sorry!
That's ok, we'll just make you pay the "No Costume Tax" and you'll be fine Seriously I'll just be glad to meet more people from the boards, so don't worry we won't be counting costumes
Next time. I'm already flaking out on going to the Baltimore Zoo's Halloween festivities on Sunday so I think our weekend plans are pretty mch set at this point.
And there is one Eleventh Doctor costume that doesn't require elbow patches:

Nice! Where did you get the coat?

I went with the Cosplaysky one in wool. It's not 100% accurate, but I've got no complaints.
Well I do have a costume but its an Elizabethan dress...you know, something that actually fits in at the faire. Unlike you guys. :lol
Frosty, if you showed up with no elbow patches I don't think I would have even spoke to you
Moon I'm with you, although I do wear my leather jacket in real life, just pretty paranoid about the weather conditions. Although did have one for years that went through rain, snow and ice storms and that thing never looked bad.
Risu I had wondered about the tweed and rain, is that the sort of thing that will shrink?
